自称“比特币参议员”的辛西娅·鲁米斯 (Cynthia Lummis) 建议出售部分政府黄金，为当选总统提议的比特币储备提供资金

这位共和党参议员的法案将帮助美国在不增加政府赤字的情况下获得 100 万比特币。

Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis, a self-proclaimed “Bitcoin senator” and close ally of President-elect Donald Trump, has proposed selling some of the government’s gold to fund Trump's proposed plan to create a Bitcoin stockpile.

自称“比特币参议员”、当选总统唐纳德·特朗普的亲密盟友、共和党参议员辛西娅·卢米斯 (Cynthia Lummis) 提议出售部分政府黄金，为特朗普提出的创建比特币库存计划提供资金。

The bill would help the U.S. acquire 1 million BTC without increasing its government deficit. The cryptocurrency recently overtook silver to become the world’s eighth-largest asset.

该法案将帮助美国在不增加政府赤字的情况下获得 100 万比特币。这种加密货币最近超过白银，成为世界第八大资产。

Lummis first revealed the bill during the Bitcoin 2024 conference in July. The move came shortly after Trump shared his goal of creating a Bitcoin reserve within the government.

Lummis 在 7 月份的比特币 2024 会议期间首次披露了该法案。此举是在特朗普分享他在政府内部建立比特币储备的目标后不久做出的。

The reserve would function similarly to traditional gold reserves, serving as a hedge against inflation and an alternative to fiat currency, which Trump argues is subject to devaluation due to policies like high government spending and “money printing” during crises.

该储备的功能类似于传统的黄金储备，作为对冲通胀和法定货币的替代品，特朗普认为，由于政府高支出和危机期间的“印钞”等政策，法定货币可能会贬值。

Trump and his allies argue that holding Bitcoin could reduce the national debt in the long term, especially if Bitcoin's value rises significantly.

特朗普及其盟友认为，从长远来看，持有比特币可以减少国家债务，特别是如果比特币的价值大幅上涨的话。

Upon his first announcement of the reserve, the President-elect did not mention buying 1 million Bitcoin but instead said the government would hold 200,000 tokens it had already seized.

在首次宣布储备金时，候任总统并未提及购买 100 万个比特币，而是表示政府将持有已扣押的 20 万个代币。

Lummis' bill would see the government purchase an additional one million Bitcoin over five years, at a cost of about $90 billion at current market rates. Talking to Bloomberg, Lummis said: “We already have the financial assets in the form of gold certificates to convert to Bitcoin. So the effect on the U.S. balance sheet is pretty neutral.”

Lummis 的法案要求政府在五年内额外购买 100 万比特币，按当前市场价格计算，成本约为 900 亿美元。鲁米斯在接受彭博社采访时表示：“我们已经拥有黄金凭证形式的金融资产，可以转换为比特币。因此，对美国资产负债表的影响相当中性。”

The purchase price will likely increase as investors are expected to flock to buy the digital asset. In the latest Federal Reserve balance sheet, the Treasury reports holding gold valued at $11 billion. However, this price has been unchanged since 1973, and today's prices would value the gold reserve at about $675 billion.

由于预计投资者将蜂拥购买数字资产，购买价格可能会上涨。在最新的美联储资产负债表中，财政部报告持有价值 110 亿美元的黄金。然而，这个价格自 1973 年以来一直没有变化，按照今天的价格计算，黄金储备的价值约为 6750 亿美元。

The bill would also involve establishing a “decentralized network of secure Bitcoin storage facilities” around the country.

该法案还将涉及在全国范围内建立“安全比特币存储设施的去中心化网络”。

“Establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve to bolster the U.S. dollar with a digital hard asset will secure our nation’s standing as the global financial leader for decades to come,” Lummis said.

鲁米斯表示：“建立比特币战略储备，以数字硬资产提振美元，将确保我们国家在未来几十年内作为全球金融领导者的地位。”

Trump has had a tumultuous journey with the crypto industry. In just 2021, the President-elect slammed Bitcoin as a “scam,” claiming he didn't like it because “it's another currency competing against the dollar.”

特朗普在加密货币行业经历了一段动荡的旅程。就在 2021 年，当选总统猛烈抨击比特币是一个“骗局”，声称他不喜欢它，因为“它是另一种与美元竞争的货币”。

But Trump doubled down on his crypto views in the run-up to his second presidential victory, vowing to make America the “crypto capital of the world.”

但特朗普在第二次总统胜利前夕更加坚定了他的加密货币观点，并发誓要让美国成为“世界加密货币之都”。

Along with a Bitcoin reserve, the President-elect voiced his intention to foster U.S. dominance in Bitcoin mining and vowed to fire SEC Chairman Gary Gensler on his first day in office.

除了比特币储备外，当选总统还表达了他要巩固美国在比特币挖矿领域的主导地位的意图，并誓言在上任第一天解雇美国证券交易委员会主席加里·詹斯勒(Gary Gensler)。

Gensler has been a driving force in the SEC's crackdown on crypto companies, with the majority of the sector believing he has been too aggressive in his enforcement actions.

Gensler 一直是 SEC 打击加密货币公司的推动力量，该行业大多数人认为他的执法行动过于激进。

Legal experts claim Trump will not have the power to fire Gensler directly. Instead, he could appoint a new commissioner to lead the SEC and pursue policies aligned with a pro-crypto agenda.

法律专家声称特朗普无权直接解雇詹斯勒。相反，他可以任命一名新委员来领导 SEC，并推行与支持加密货币议程相一致的政策。
